IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known (to the State of California) to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some example of these chemicals are:
l
lead from lead-based paints
l
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products
l
arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, always wear MSHA/NIOSH approved, properly fitting face mask or respirator when using
such tools.
When using air tools, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of of
personal injury.

HAZARD
WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
RISK OF EYE OR HEAD
INJURY
• Air powered equipment and
power tools are capable of
propelling materials such as
fasteners, metal chips, saw
dust, and other debris at high
speed, which could result in
serious eye injury.
• Compressed air can be hazardous. The air stream can
cause injury to soft tissue areas
such as eyes, ears, etc.
Particles or objects propelled
by the stream can cause injury.
• Tool attachments can be come
loose or break and fly apart
propelling particles at the
operator and others in the work
area.
• Always wear ANSI approved
Z87.1 safety glasses with side
shields.
• Never leave operating tool
unattended. Disconnect air
hose when tool is not in use.
• For additional protection use
an approved face shield in
addition to safety glasses.
RISK OF FIRE OR
EXPLOSION
• Abrasive tools such as sanders
and grinders, rotating tools
such as drills, and impact tools
such as nailers, staplers,
wrenches, hammers, and
reciprocating saws are capable
of generating sparks which
could result in ignition of flammable materials.
• Exceeding the maximum pressure rating of tools or
accessories could cause an
explosion resulting in serious
injury.
• Make sure that any attachments are securely assembled.
• Never operate tools near
flammable substances such
as gasoline, naptha, cleaning
solvents, etc.
• Work in a clean, well ventilated
area free of combustible
materials.
• Never use oxygen, carbon
dioxide or other bottled gases
as a power source for air tools.
• Use compressed air regulated
to a maximum pressure at or
below the rated pressure of
any attachments.
RISK OF LOSS OF
HEARING
• Long term exposure to noise
produced from the operation
of air tools can lead to
permanent hearing loss.
• Always wear ANSI S3.19
hearing protection.
RISK TO BREATHING
INHALATION HAZARD
• Abrasive tools, such as
grinders, sanders, and cut-off
tools generate dust and
abrasive materials which can
be harmful to human lungs and
respiratory system.
• Some materials such as
adhesives and tar, contain
chemicals whose vapors
could cause serious injury with
prolonged exposure.
• Always wear MSHA/NIOSH
approved, properly fitting face
mask or respirator when using
such tools.
• Always work in a clean, dry,
well ventilated area.
